Bacardi and the Bandit

I said goodbye to my pal Pat today. She was a family friend and looked after me when I started my first job in a factory 17 years ago.

After the service, we came back here. The club is also known as lochore institute or 'the chute' as we called it as kids. It was one of Pat's favourite places where she would meet her friends every Saturday night.

My Auntie Dot is 60 tomorrow. Dot and Pat were best pals. We are having a big family do tomorrow to celebrate, Pat would've been there. A few glasses will be raised to both of gem tomorrow.
